About this layer

Military area boundaries help identify land associated with military use. Check these early when planning access. A boundary is not permission to enter, and old or apparently unused areas can still have restrictions.

What it is for

Turn on the relevant layers together and read their legends and notes. Check current conditions with the land manager before planning a visit.

Limits

An unshaded area is not automatically available for detecting. Different permissions and restrictions can overlap.
